On several BMWs, front control arms are a weak point. Turner Motorsport stocks a variety of replacement front control arms for your BMW. We recommend looking into the OE options we offer to save you money on your maintenance so you have more left over for performance parts!
Stock rubber control arm bushings give a disconnected and mushy feel to the front suspension, especially when worn, as the bushing deflects more than it should. You get sloppy steering, vibrations, and poor handling which makes the car feel unstable. These urethane bushings are stiffer than stock rubber and will not deflect as much. This helps keep the alignment in check with less variation. The car feels more planted and confidence-inspiring. And a lifetime warranty means you'll likely never have to pay for another bushing ever again!

The factory-installed rubber control arm bushings often result in a disconnected and imprecise sensation in the front suspension, particularly as they wear out, causing excessive deflection. This, in turn, leads to imprecise steering, vibrations, and subpar handling, resulting in a somewhat unstable driving experience. In contrast, these urethane bushings offer superior stiffness compared to the stock rubber ones, minimizing deflection. This contributes to maintaining consistent alignment and results in a more secure and confidence-boosting feel while driving. Furthermore, the added benefit of a lifetime warranty means you're unlikely to incur any future expenses for replacing these bushings. OE / OEM Cross Reference Numbers: 31122284976
